There is an element of mischief to this poem which captures me! The reader - and of course children - can henceforth consider the fairy to be a frivolous angel. Delightful!

Hello my friend.
This is a lovely thing for your daughter. I like it very much. The poetic flow is very good (as always),and the thought is good too. As Shakespeare said "there are more things in heaven and earth than this world dreams of".

Again you have excelled. With a backyard full of fun critters and fairies all around and a Saint to walk the grounds, you have found heaven on earth.

Where would we be without our dreams? Was a dreamer as a child and as an adult I'm still there :) Loved it! Thanks for another beautiful poem :)

God made fairies and angels.We can have a personal angel within our lives to help us in everyway on earth. Fairies I feel are a small angels in a way and can help us to feel happy within our minds especially as a child.

Comment from Broken Fingers
Hi
To be honest, I struggled with this one, not that it is not a well written poem, just I struggle (as a cynic) to get a grasp on the concept of fairies..then when the God bit comes in it's a double whammy for me as I'm an atheist..lol.
The poem is written with great craft with I sense some understanding of the difference between "fairies" and "angels". Nice sonnet format.

I like the incisiveness of this great imaginative work. Its simple diction and rhymes make it an enjoyable read. it has a deep philosophical meaning THAT BORDERS ON THE SPECULATIVE ANGLE OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.KUDOS.

I think the whimsical and the scatty is a necessary balance to the dutiful and the efficient, and certainly helps the world to be the deep well of wonder and inspiration that it is!
What a lovely little poem. I have, as you may have realised, run out of different ways to say that I enjoy your words very much :-)

Oh, you are so gifted, Adewpearl. Another truly wonderful poem, clear, sharp and a delight to read. I think it's so good in fact, that you could start and end it with any of the stanzas and it would still tell the same story.
Quite well done

Your artwork portrays your verse very well, and your words make an artful journey. It takes all types of people to make the world go round-so to speak, a very pleasent piece, well cersed, Debra
